Te Tuhi : Pre-visit lesson 3 Tūrangawaewae A place to stand Te Tuhi : Pre-visit lesson 3

Welcome to Tūrangawaewae A place to stand During this lesson we will be exploring… Before we begin this lesson, lets reflect on what we learnt in the last lesson. Symbol making.

During our last lesson we learnt that art and tūrangawaewae… can help reflect your identity, wakapapa and culture. can express places that are important to you and your family. During our last lesson we learnt that art and tūrangawaewae… can share different histories and stories to cultures we belong to. can reflect friends, family and the community you belong to.

Lets start this lesson Symbol making.

In this lesson we will develop and create drawings that help reflect and express our tūrangawaewae.

Symbol making Whakapapa Culture Home Stories To make a start lets think of 4 areas that could make up our tūrangawaewae. Whakapapa Culture Home Stories

Whakapapa Our Whakapapa is the people who is in our family line, these are our ancestors, grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunties and uncles. In Janet’s art work we saw how she reflected her family and friends. On a piece of paper in one rectangle draw a symbol in outline only, that represents your connection to your family.

Culture Flags or patterns can be used to represent a country and can remind us of culture. In Reuben and Wayne’s art work we saw how they each reflected their culture through specific patterns. In a second rectangle draw a symbol in outline only, that represents your culture or special connection to a country.

Home Home is where we live, a place we know well and where our friends and family live. In Robert’s art work we saw how he reflected home through imagery of roads, houses and mountains. In the third rectangle draw a symbol in outline only, that represents your home, neighbourhood or city. Auckland

Stories Stories can be important to family, culture and home and can share history and stories of ancestors. Stories can live forever if they are shared with one another. In Lisa and Wayne’s art work we saw how they reflected histories and stories of their ancestors through their paintings and photographs. In the fourth rectangle draw your final symbol in outline only, that represents a story you know that either connects with your family, culture or Aotearoa NZ.

We have now completed four symbols that reflect our tūrangawaewae. Make sure you bring these drawings to Te Tuhi so we can continue to explore our tūrangawaewae through art. We have now completed four symbols that reflect our tūrangawaewae.

During our visit we will continue to learn and share our tūrangawaewae. We hope you enjoyed learning about tūrangawaewae over the last few lessons.

We look forward to your visit. End of lesson
